I hope it all works out for the guy. Being an experienced fisherman , he knows there will be crap about a big fish so i doubt he would do anything shady. I say nice catch and congrats on the world record. I don't care of IGFA certifies it or not. If he weighed it on a state certified scale , that weight is good with me. Yes I would think people would want to see the insides but that's up to the fisherm,an. I have seen obviously stuffed fish weighed in for tournaments at tackle shops. The things look like they have jagged weights at different angles pushing the belly out from inside. This fish looks very natural and not at all stuffed. In fact it looks less full of food than you would expect from such a big sucker.

Congrats Greg. I hope the catch brings you joy like it should and not misery from other jealous fisherman!
